Head of Civil Service of the Federation, Mrs Didi Walson-Jack, has stressed the need for increased collaboration with the Chartered Institute of Personnel Management of Nigeria (CIPM) to enhance the implementation of ongoing reform initiatives within the Federal Civil Service Strategy and Implementation Plan (FCSSIP-25).
Walson-Jack who made the call during a courtesy visit to her office by the management of CIPM led by the president and chairman of the Governing Council, Mallam Ahmed Gobir in Abuja, emphasised the importance of the reforms and the desire for closer collaboration with the Institute.
She highlighted the area of collaboration with CIPM on the FCSSIP-25 plan pillar 1, focusing on Capability
Building and Talent Management, expressing optimism that partnering with CIPM would contribute significantly to achieving the goals set out in this pillar.
The Head of Service also informed the visiting team about the establishment of War Rooms dedicated to address each of the six pillars and enablers of the reform plan.
“These War Rooms are intended to tackle challenges associated with each pillar and accelerate the pace of reforms within the civil service,” she said.
In his response, the president of CIPM, Mallam Ahmed Gobir, commended Walson-Jack on her appointment and reiterated the institute’s commitment to collaborate with her office.
Gobir said the successful implementation of the Performance Management System is a significant milestone in modernising and streamlining performance evaluation processes within the service.
He further emphasised that CIPM, as the apex body responsible for regulating the practice of Human Resource Management in Nigeria, is dedicated to supporting national development through strategic partnerships with key stakeholders like the Office of the Head of Civil Service of the Federation.
